Crypto ETFs ended inflow streak amid macroeconomic pressure

The spot exchange-traded fund market faced a renewed outflow of funds after a week of active growth. According to SoSoValue, investors began reducing positions in major digital assets, while the trend reversal coincided with increased volatility and mass liquidations in the futures market.

Against this background, the volume of forcibly closed long positions in Bitcoin ($BTC) reached $382 million. According to a user under the nickname HAWK, the protective price floor formed by fund activity began to lose stability.

However, despite the current decline, in March net inflows into BlackRock’s flagship IBIT fund amounted to about $1.5 billion. Macroeconomist Crypto Seth noted that the total holdings of the leading cryptocurrency on IBIT’s balance sheet increased to 786,000 $BTC.

In his opinion, U.S. institutional players have globally shifted their strategy from selling to accumulation.

Altcoin ETFs

Funds focused on Ethereum ($ETH) also recorded a loss of liquidity. Thus, net outflows from spot $ETH ETFs on March 18 amounted to $55.7 million.

The total net asset value in the segment fell to $12.87 billion. Even the launch of BlackRock’s second fund with a staking option only temporarily managed to reverse the ongoing negative trend.

The new instrument from BlackRock under the ticker ETHB debuted on March 12, receiving $15.5 million on its first trading day.

Funds based on Solana (SOL), in turn, lost $295,730 over the day, while instruments tied to $XRP ($XRP), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Chainlink (LINK) showed zero capital flow dynamics.

According to Hawk, institutional investors are moving into a wait-and-see mode, using stablecoins as reserve capital.
